Let's say that things go right and we sweep WVU... what does that do to our RPI?

Without factoring in any RPI movement from other teams, the points gained alone from a sweep would put us around 19-20ish as things stand right now, so it would likely end up higher once you factor in movement from other teams.

If you want a kick to the dick, we would be 23 in RPI right now if we would have won game 1. One spot behind WVU.

Well we’d be in first place if our bullpen wasn’t a bunch of head cases managed by a numb skull 

[HenryJames 66,082]

We’d be number one in the country if we had won the OU series.

Is there any way they play today? Currently pouring. 
Has tickets for tomorrow for my kid’s 7th birthday, and none of the friends can go today. And who would want to?

[Hookem2147 21,327]

Radar does show that this should clear out around 2:30-3:00. Who knows how big of a window they would have.

Other than seeing Witt, and avoiding a L, do we even care about this game?

Continuing to get Witt live action is definitely the most important part. Even if we only get 3 innings in before a downpour or whatever.

He needs to be able to throw one inning, go to the dugout and come back out. I’m sure the hope was he could have done it last week before his pitch count ended up being super high in the 1st.

I’ll also be interested to see if we get back to back good outings from Sthele.

Lulz.  Daly goes 0-2 w/ two strikeouts in a game in which the team scores 24 runs on 24 hits w/ 12 walks.

Completely non-competitive ABs as well.

[Bevo&Pevo 5,194]

Looks like 3 up and 3 down for Witt in the first.

[HenryJames 66,082]

Best Witt’s looked thus far.

[UnhappilyMarried 816]

Offspeed stuff looking great. 2 more outings to find fastball location and up velocity and we could have our difference maker

[zlavydra 2,123]

SJS starter pitched 5 innings on Tuesday , when he lowered his ERA to 7.96 with his performance against no. 260 RPI San Francisco .

2-0 DC bomb

[HenryJames 66,082]

Dylan.

[Bevo&Pevo 5,194]

DC is smokin' hot with the bat right now.

[AUS-97HORN 11,808]

Man, that ball just barely left the building   but still counts.

 

its like the old joke,What do you call the guy who graduated last in his medical class?"    Doctor

Three-run bomb for a .536 OPS guy gives SJ the lead.

[Horn80 6,127]

That sucks

[Hookem2147 21,327]

3-0 pitch to the batter before the homer was right down the middle and called a ball 

[Had Enough 2,083]

Oh no. Witt is our shittiest starter/pitcher.

Carlson is swinging well, as is O'Dowd

Nice dub TC

[UnhappilyMarried 816]

Carlson slugging a lot better lately

[troph 24,819]

Man he’s showing off some curves in those tight pants, a bit of a pretty boy. I like it. 

[zlavydra 2,123]

Hell yeah ,Flores. Tie game.

I feel like we always have some good looking guys. 

I mean, it's baseball I guess. (Didn't help @Fletch out)

Our boys got 'em tied back up.

[ztejas 43,467]

Why. Why do that on the base paths.

[zlavydra 2,123]

4-3 after 2. One bit of good news from this weekend is that we've punished the lefties they've thrown out there.

[Had Enough 2,083]

Why. Why do that on the base paths.

He’s only been on base about 10 times. Not sure what to do.

[zlavydra 2,123]

Great inning for Tanner. One awful pitch in the 2nd cost him 

[UnhappilyMarried 816]

 .5mph of wind less and that’s 3 scoreless with a walk and an infield hit. Curve just kept getting better 

[ztejas 43,467]

Great fucking hit. That's earning it right there. 

[ztejas 43,467]

I'm pretty sure 12-9 isn't two games back of 13-6, LHN.

Nvm I guess it technically is.

Edited May 13, 2023 by ztejas

[Hookem2147 21,327]

That’s a weird sacrifice. 5 or 6 runs isn’t winning this game.

Ojos lindos 2 RBI single

[HuntinHorn 986]

Excellent situational hitting Porter F’in Brown!

[Had Enough 2,083]

No. But they aren’t shutting us out the last 5 no matter what happens this inning.

And GG is 0 for his last 8.

(13-12) - (9-6) = -2

C ya

Run margin helps RPI, correct? We need to pile it on.

I thought the same thing at the time, but you have two hot hitters coming up and stay out of DP. And it worked out.

8-3 Texas
